0:39Now PlayingTrump's first impeachment - 2020
Pamela S. Karlan, a Stanford law professor, told House lawmakers on Dec. 4 that she was "insulted" by Republican Rep. Doug Collins' suggestion that she, who is testifying as a law professor, wouldn’t care about the facts. “I would like to say to you, sir, that I read transcripts of every one of the witnesses who appeared in the live hearing because I would not speak about these things without reviewing the facts,” she said to Collins during her opening remarks. Karlan spoke during the first day of public hearings by the Judiciary Committee in the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. The focus of the Judiciary hearing, which came after the House Intelligence Committee held hearings in late November, is to define the grounds for a presidential impeachment. The impeachment inquiry has revolved around a July 25 phone call in which Trump asked the president of Ukraine to investigate former vice president and 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
